"Poof. One day you are here, and then you come home as ash in a box. That’s how sharp the transformation can be." That stopped me in my tracks. It really can be that sharp. Oy.
“Developing muscles to accept this much freedom is the magic trick.” But oh how liberating even knowing that truly is! If only we could capture the feeling and hold onto it forever, it always seems to be just beyond our reach. Guess that’s just part of the human condition? Love love love all of this. Thank you for sharing and helping all of us grievers feel less alone, and a little more hopeful 🫶
Oh Kara, what a wonderful aerodyne man Nick was. I love that picture of him with you in the garden.
Your words and voice are so exquisite. Your portrayal of your journey is magic. I’m learning so much about life through your living description of yours And his.
I look forward to holding this book in my hands and reading it and seeing all the pictures that will make it feel so present. I also believe that this will be a beautiful audiobook. Keep writing please.
Well, Kara, if it weren’t for your encouragement, inspiration and leadership of the Daily Dive, I would not be here greeting other writers and writing almost daily with you when I can. Thanks, my friend!
Oh, this is brilliant 💔❤️🩹❤️, really wow! l so relate to this in feeling and experience. Loved listening to your reading as l followed your words on the screen. Thank you 🙏
Very moving, I felt all the words you used to paint this picture. Thank you for being brave enough to bear your heart, when it so easily be degraded.
Thank you so much!

Thank you so much Sarah! Yes, finding that freedom again and again, I believe that’s what we practice in meditation. The opposite of holding on!
Ah yes, what a great point! We’re not meant to hold onto it, we can only find it if we stay open to it ✨
A RESURRECTION 🙌🏼 Yessss chills all over!
Chills! I can’t ask for more than that.

Of course, I mean "androgynous" not aerodyne. Sorry about the type
Nina, it always amazes me that you read and listen and give me so much encouragement! I think this Substack thing is good for us.

You are so welcome! without you coming to Writers Daily Dive nearly every day I would not be where I am in my process.
Thank you!
